Leon Cohen, Dirks
Triumph in Debate
In a closely contested debate held
in the Boys' Debating League Monday morning, Leon Cohen and Ed
Dirks defeated the negative team
composed of Joseph Hoskins and
Don Penrod. The question: Resolved
That The United States Should
Adopt the Essential Features of the
British Plan of Radio Control, was
debated intelligently by both teams.
The negative team based their
arguments on the fact that private
monopoly is preferred to political
monopoly. The affirmative team
used the fact that the present type
of American program is inferior to
that of the British; as a foundation
for their constructive speeches.
The rebuttal speeches were well
organized and were very effectively
given by both teams. Mr. Evans
awarded his decision to the negative
over the decision of the class
judges.
